future. >> bonny mulieri. >> it's like watching your child stand in the middle of the interstate and you just have to hope they don't get hit. >> reporter: holly carr. 46 mothers fighting for their children and yours by shaving their heads. susan did it on live tv during an earlier broadcast in honor of her 10-year-old son. cancer took his life earlier this year. >> i have done this for david and i have now been able to check this off as something i've done and i'm proud. our children didn't have a choice. they were bald because they had this terrible disease. >> reporter: the number 46 is significant because each week day in the united states, 46 children in the united states are diagnosed with pediatric cancer, like little decklin eight days shy of his first birthday when he lost his life to cancer. >> we started looking into pediatric cancer and we're shocked at how underfunded it was. >> we've been through the worst of the worst. and i think going through that with your child you realize like what's important and what's not. >> reporter: and what's important now is raising money. mor

can be paid for the story. bonnie, how much would this story go for and withed it be tainted? does any network or tbe the com that paid casey anthony? >> millions of people followed this case. they were obsessed with it. for that reason, i believe there women be bidding for her interview. however, i don't think she'll get top dollar. she'll get a couple hundred thousand dollars in some way. they'll work something out and then the question is, can she sell a story about her life and what happened? can she get involved in a book deal? i think she'd have a hard time with a book publishing company offering her $1 million for a book. could she get a percentage if she cooperated with an author that did the book? >> that would be a more likely scenario we'll see. >> is this something like with o.j. simpson back in the day where he basically had to sell-off everything, including his heisman trophy. any type of money that casey gets? >> yes. if she gets a job, let's say she gets a job and she's making whatever a weekly salary is, they are step in and say we'll take a piece of that. the same way

of bonnie waleed, that's 100 miles from tripoli. we'll keep you posted. >>> another human foot has turned up on the shore of vancouver. it was found inside a running shoe along with a leg bone. that makes it 11 feet that have washed up in british washington, british columbia since 2007. it remains a mystery. let's talk about irene and the saturated northeast. nearly 2 million people from north carolina to maine still don't have electricity. flood advisories are in effect for parts of five states. in new jersey the flood passaic river is settling back into its banks and should be we low flood stage. officials in vermont say the worst is ore there. crews managed to patch up washed out roads and get supply swoos isolated towns. vermont is getting help from its neighbors. a black hawk brought over supplies and nooerm 100 members of the illinois national guard is helping too. they've sent over 8 of its helicopters. all of vermont's helicopters, where are they? they're in iraq. let's head to the weather center, rob marciano. that's good news. the rivers are returning to their banks and things are

it comes to the death penalty and so no one case, i don't think can do it, but i think as bonnie said earlier, this generation never really has had that strong, visceral reaction when it comes to these type of cases but i do think that there's a lot more awareness and people are making some serious, you know, raising some serious concerns. at one point, i tweeted earlier, anderson, that's this. if you care about this case, if you care about justice why do we, as americans, try to get out of jury duty, because we say, oh, no, i don't want to have do that but we question a jury's decision. this should tell any american, if you care about justice, to don't try to run out on jury duty. you need to say, hey, i'm following serve because i might be the difference makary dozen whether someone who is innocent or guilty being put to death. >> bj, at what point will we know -- how soon after the execution does word come out? >> pretty -- right afterwards. i mean, someone from the department of corrections will come out and making the announcement. we will know shortly after ter occurs. >> david

is what i say. we'll get much more of that as the season carries on. thanks so much, bonnie. >> sure. >>> checking our top stories right now. american hikers josh fattal and shane bauer are on their way home to the u.s. after their release from captive activity in iran. we heard their voice for the first time since they were released. >> we would like to thank oman for welcoming us and hosting our families. we would also like to thank the american ambassador and his wife. for their hospitality. we hope some day to return to this wonderful country, but for now we're eager to get home at last. >> fattal and bower talked to reporters shortly before boarding an airplane in oman. destination, the united states. they have been in jail in iran since 2009,ing charged and convicted on spying charges after crossing the iranian border from iraq. >>> a lovely day for a little r and r for president barack obama and former president bill clinton. they hit the links at the andrews air force base golf course. they played a foursome with the president's chief of staff and one of clinton's aides. >>>

be relatively short and off then their first visit is their last. for others, like 24-year-old nick bonnis, back to back arrests, have led to a revolving door relationship with the boston suffolk county jail. >> thes stays in here keep getting longer and the stays on the street are shorter. >> i was in for three and half months, out for eight days now i'm back for two months. eight days. >> most mif record is armed robberies, unarmed robberies. i would use whatever. anything from a rock to a knife to whatever. whatever was available at that point in time. >> how would you rob someone with a rock? >> you hit someone with it really hard. then you take what's in their pockets. >> most of bubanas's robberies have been to support his drag habit. now, he is back in on an assault and battery charge to which he has plead not guilty. the alleged victim is his girlfriend. >> they are just saying that i assaulted my girlfriend at the time. she got arrested with me. she said i didn't assault her. i don't know, it was pretty much, they knew we were in a high drug zone. they want us to cooperate to help, you

that you physically endanger another person's life. i mean, you don't have to be bonnie and clyde to be a bank robber, and you don't have to be al qaeda to be a terrorist. >> i don't think these people are terrorists. i think the people and the agencies and the industry that they're fighting are the true terrorists. when you've got big timber companies coming into the northwest, clear-cutting old- growth forest; big oil companies with their big oil spills that cost billions and billions and billions of dollars-- you don't see the fbi raiding these executives' homes or anything like that. they aren't being threatened with life in prison. all they really do is just pay a fine and move on to the next court. >> the old adage that, you know, one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter is true. you know, if you agree with their motives, "wow, they're a hero. they're not a terrorist at all." if you disagree with their motives, then they're a terrorist. that's tough, okay? that's why its a whole lot cleaner to deal with crimes. crimes, non-crimes. okay, im good with that. i can d

. and so i don't think any one case can do it. but as bonnie said earlier, this generation has never really had that strong, visceral reaction when it comes to these types of cases. but i do think that there's a lot more awareness and people are making some serious -- you know, raising some serious concerns. at one point, i tweeted earlier, anderson, that's this. if you care about this case, if you care about justice why do we, as americans, try to get out of jury duty, because we say, oh, no, i don't want to have do that but we question a jury's decision. this should tell any american, if you care about justice, don't try to run out on jury duty. you need to say, hey, i'm following serve because i might be the difference maker. a dozen or some people deciding whether a person is innocent or guilty or should be put to death. >> bj, at what point will we know -- how soon after the execution does word come out? >> pretty -- right afterwards. i mean, someone from the department of corrections will come out and making the announcement. we will know shortly after ter occurs. >> david mattingly,

california bar. >> really it's a testament to all of you here to his wonderful mother, bonnie, and his grandmother, florence. >> reporter: his mom and grandmother were both there with the rest of the family from east palo alto, and some old friends. >> you have risen above poverty, above race, in one of the toughest neighborhoods in the bay area. you are a student rising above. now you are a lawyer rising above. [ cheers & applause ] >> reporter: five years ago, his partner -- now the attorney general of california. she came to do the honors. >> the bottom line, and that is a sign of strength and leadership, is you know what you're capable of, in spite of whatever odds people may think other people may think you face. and you know that you can achieve. >> reporter: and then it was time. >> i, benny joe mackey, ii -- to the best of my knowledge and ability. >> welcome to the profession! [ cheers & applause ] >> i am speechless, and excited and happy at the same time. >> and i am so proud of him, because i knew something good is going to come out of east palo alto, and coming out of my f

[ dramatic soundtrack plays ] this picture stars you and saving

town, as well as bonny walid, which has a tribe that has been traditionally quite pro qaddafi. there are people inside these places who may feel that they have no choice. they're a bit desperado. they worry if they do give up they may be executed and they really have nothing to lose by continuing to fight. >> reporter: tara, you had a very interesting piece in the "washington post" this morning talking about the fact that libyans, ordinary libyans are growing impatient with their leadership. what did you mean? explain that a little more. >> well, ordinary libyans are not hearing very much about the process of nation building that's going on right now. and part of the reason for this is because there is some chaos within that process. libya is basically a country that was left without any institutions, unlike egypt and tunisia. libya has no real army to speak of. libya has no parliamentary body. many of its institutions are just in complete disarray. and so libyans are waiting for these institutions to start up again, and in order for that to happen, there has to be some sort o

in london. she's brandishing this fake gun and it's kind of like this very bonnie and clydesque scene. they're saying that this is terrible. this is a glamorous pop star. what kind of an example are you setting for people, particularly in the area where the crime has gone down and partly because of what they're trying to do with their gun laws and everything. so they're saying that she needs to apologize for having a gun. also, they're saying that she didn't get permission to use one. if they had known she was using one -- it's kind of a big deal here. it was a fake gun. >> but it looked like a real gun. >> oh. >> it's different here in the uk. it's not like in the u.s. where okay, it's not that big a deal. because of how -- because of the laws of guns in the u.s. here it's much more uptight. they don't like that sort of stuff. they feel that this should just not have happened. i'm with you. but this is the situation here. >> we'll see if britney spears apologizes. somehow i think not. but i could be wrong. >> i think not, too. i think not, too. a little bit of fewer roar around this is goo

by this lady. and i want to introduce you to bonnie jacobs. hi, bonnie. >> hi. >> tell me what is going on here. this is great. >> it started back in april. with the design that came from joan gardner and gail boemenharlo and janet etheridge. and anyway, they put their heads together, and came up with this idea for having a mural in the visitor's center. >> and you will be working on this through october? >> we will wrap it up hopefully the end of this month. and we've got to grout it now. we got to put grout in here, and grout in here, with the dark brown here, where the blue is, blue gray grout. and the artists in the community made these pieces and these over here, this is potter pieces. >> and well, she is working around herself. but all of the artists here -- >> real quickly so you understand, here you are, right? okay, turn now. no? yes, right? i thought that looked like you. now turn and look this way. >> okay. >> you didn't want to talk but i wanted to make sure she was on tv. >> a reason to come back. thank you, ladies. myfoxdc.com is our web site. we have a link to the barns at rose h

for the gridlock, carol? >> some of them do. how can president obama end the partisan bickering? this from bonnie? he could stop behaving like a child. this from christina. bipartisan ship is a farce. unfortunately the president keeps giving in to the gop, and has gone way beyond extending the hand of bipartisanship, and they have been aiming for the jugular since the beginning. this is from courtney, obama should dissolve the senate and the house and declare himself the emperor like the emperor in "star wars." >> we like our democracy. we don't want an emperor. thank you, carol. >> sure. >> you told us what you wanted to see. your choose the news story just moments away.

for the city. >> let's go straight to bonnie schneider. explain what we are seeing. >> right now what we are watch suggest say lot of heavy rains sweeping across the area as well as coastal sections of alabama. the rain is the beginning. we are watching for strong wind as well. even though it hasn't formed to a system, it's an area of disturbed weather we are watching closely. let's take a look at it on the satellite. as you forward from the mayor, it's a slow mover. the national hurricane center has not named the storm. they were looking for the closed circulation. if they find that and the tropical storm force wins of 39 miles per hour or greater, it will be tropical storm lee. that may occur tonight. we not only have the threat for strong wind and flooding, but the computer models have been all over the place and looping back into the gulf and back onshore again it has to do with the steering. they are so light, there is no influence to push the storm. it is so beneficial if they were pushing towards texas, but the consensus seems more of a northward flow. the biggest threat is the sl

. host: from maryland we hear from bonnie on our republican line. caller: good morning. i don't blame the president for job loss. i blame our local politicians. our governor went to asia, our governor went to asia, hired a bunch of teachers, paid their expenses to relocate to baltimore, all the while they laid our teachers off. now he's going to india. he bragged. we have five companies in baltimore and we have 50 companies in india. he's traveling with businessmen at the taxpayers expense. to me, it would make more sense to hire local rather than go to other companies and pay them to come to our country and take our jobs. to me, this is our politician's fault. it's the locals. it's not the president's responsibility. it's the state responsibility to keep our jobs in our state. guest: now, i have to say i don't know about the conditions and the situation in maryland that you're talking about. but there's no question that state and local governments have been shrinking. they've lost about 550,000 jobs in all over the last couple of years. and so that's one area. states are dealing with

is what we would love to do. host: time for a couple of more calls. bonnie, a republican. caller: i would like to know -- i read a story in "reader's digest" about a doctor who had studied a young man that had autism. he said he was a friend to the mother of the boy. he had found out that the boy had severe allergies. are there any studies that have gone along with that? guest: thank you for the question. i suspect you read that article about 10 years ago or maybe 15. there was a doctor in the uk who proposed the notion that he was recovering measles virus from people and was proposing a link. his papers have all been retracted by the charles the publish them. he had his license to practice withdrawn in the united kingdom. so i think that the scientific validity of that work has been called very seriously into question. there have been a lot of people -- people are looking very, very hard to find out what is causing autism. this is a terrible thing. would love to know the cause so that we can prevent it. but that study has been completely discredited. host: wilmington, north carolina, mel

for help. let's get to the phones. bonny, new jersey. caller: i like to ask about the crisis we face with the shortage of generic drugs, a lot of them used for chemotherapy, and other serious drug problems. it is wonderful that we're creating new drugs, but if we are dying because we cannot get the drug said have already been created -- i think a big problem is, i just do not understand. there were 178 drug shortages in 2010, up from 157 the year before, and only 55, which is more than it should be, five years prior. we're getting parts from china -- hip replacements, knee replacements, people going through surgery and winding up worse off than they were. before we start innovating, we should maybe get a handle on what we have. host: here is a story from "the new york times." we had a doctor last week talking about how cancer drugs were in short supply. doctors are coming up empty. guest: it is a serious problem the doctor has put forth clearly in terms of the -- problem. the caller has put it forth clearly in terms of a shortage. they're not entirely drugs for cancer, but oftentimes
